Are there any alternatives to the EP45-DS3L with a similar price that will work with a Q6600?

You'd probably do well with a P45 GA-UD3L.

This is a great board here; http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16813131299 .

The only problems with it is just DOA boards and common technical problems such as BIOS or other misc. things that do not matter or just pretty much technical problems that people do not know how to work out but obviously your of a higher caliber for you to just pass on by these problems and know the power and Google unlike alot of people on the internet.

TL:DR; Your better with this board. There are problems with retards not being able to fix simple problems or it is DOA.

Really do like the P5Q PRO, had to fight with the UD3LR (similar to the UD3L, just a different SB chipset, ICH10R) a bit before I had it set up correctly. Lots of BIOS options, which is a plus.
Some of the information on the Newegg page is incorrect, though. For instance, I've got the manual in front of me, and max memory supported is 16GB, NOT 8GB.
Getting the P5Q PRO will also give you room to upgrade to a CrossfireX setup sometime down the road if you're interested in that. Also, be aware there's no 1394 connectors for the Gigabyte board, while there is on the P5Q PRO, which is contained on a bracket along with a port for eSATA with I have found useful.

eSATA are a hit or miss with certain chipsets. What I've found out is they do not support hot swap unlike USB when you plug it in (while the system is on) Windows detects it automatically. eSATA requires the system to be completely off, the user will plug in their eSATA device and turn the machine back on in order for Windows to recognize the devices. Want to unplug it then you'll have to complete turn off the system otherwise you'll damage the eSATA port since it's not true eSATA as it's plug to one of the SATA ports on the motherboard.

In order for eSATA to be hot swap (like USB devices) the user have to set it as ACHI (requires floppy disk during OS installation), but setting it to that may not guarantee it will support hot swapping.
